How to Add a ZeroSSL Certificate In Plesk

If you don’t wish to use the built in free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificates, you are able to obtain your own SSL certificates using other sources, such as ZeroSSL.

1. Log Into Your ZeroSSL Account

Here is the url to login: https://app.zerossl.com/certificates.

2. Select the ‘New Certificate’ Button

---

3. Enter the Domain Name You Want to Secure

---

4. Choose the Period You Wish to Secure the Domain for

---

5. Select the ‘Next Step’ Button

Leave the options as default.

6. Choose the Plan That You Want

Choose Free if you are on the free plan – Cybrancee has a paid account, so we don’t have the Free option.

7. Choose Your Preferred Method of Verification

Use the following guides to help for each of the methods:
